While this will work for pairs separated by less than 65 mm (like the ones
published in Stereo World - modern pairs), most people will have a hard
time diverging their eyes to freeview 3" or more separated pairs, like the
old stereo views.  I need to place the cards far away from my eyes to
freeview them.  Strong reading glasses could not work for me.
